[Bug 119467] Re: make non-essential packages Recommends and not Depends

[Luka Renko]

apt will install Recommends by default - this was changed in Feisty (or even Edgy). I think this is only true for meta packages.
The only difference is that you can remove Recommended package without removal of kubuntu-desktop. If you remove kubuntu-desktop, you will not get new packages that may have been added between releases.
